Add-ons (Stacks) Not Updating

After macOS High Sierra, we’ve had a handful of reports where plugin updates were not “applying” in RapidWeaver.

Scenario: A user would see the updates, follow the prompts and install them, but the same updates would appear again. Because the updates for plugins and add-ons (such as stacks) would not apply this would result in an endless loop of the same updates.

The fix we’ve found is to reestablish permissions for your add-ons folder. Since there are no “repair permissions” in recent versions of macOS, there’s a different method now.
